The second skyscraper in Lavagna. This in the photo is the second skyscraper in the city of Lavagna (I photographed the first one here). This one is not in the center and is a little more bare aesthetically; still very tall though. In the photo you can also notice the monumental cemetery of Lavagna and, in the distance, the grandstand of the Entella stadium in Chiavari.

L’oratorio di Santa Maria in Selàa a Tellaro. Passeggiando tra gli stretti vicoli di Tellaro mi sono imbattuto in questa piccola piazzetta in cui ha sede l’oratorio di Santa Maria in Selàa (o anche Santa Maria ‘N Sela’a) che ho scoperto, cercando in rete, derivi dal termine “sull’ara” e che è uno degli edifici religiosi più antichi del borgo.

Trenette al pesto genovese con patate. Ci sono tante foto del pesto sul mio blog perché è uno dei miei piatti preferiti ed è proprio tipico della mia regione. Al pesto, per essere ancora più buono, aggiungiamo anche qualche pezzettino di patate bollite (ci sarebbero da aggiungere anche i fagiolini ma a me non piacciono molto).
Per la ricetta del pesto, quello fatto in casa mia, vi rimando al bell’articolo scritto da mio papà Loris qualche tempo fa: here.

Biduino was an Italian sculptor, an exponent of the Pisan Romanesque style, active in the period 1173-1194. Attentive to the study of Roman and late-ancient sculpture, especially sarcophagi, he re-proposed crowded compositions in narrative continuity, elongating the bodies of the figures according to a still Byzantine vision or denouncing analogies with Provençal works.

The mysterious megalithic face of Borzone in Liguria. For a long time I had been meaning to go and see this prehistoric monument which is not far from where I live (Sestri Levante). With a friend, a few months ago now, we seized the opportunity and on a sunny Saturday afternoon in November we went to see the splendid Borzone Abbey and from there, following the short path (about 6 kilometres there and back) indicated, you reach the beautiful monolith. I took several photos but I tell you: the images do not do as well as the real thing.

If you want to learn more about the history of the face, I invite you to go to this page: abbaziaborzone.it.
Here's where the face is:
Given the lack of systematic studies on the find, its dating is still the subject of various hypotheses. The first ones date it back to between the Upper Paleolithic (between 20,000 and 12,000 years ago) and the Neolithic (between 10,000 and 3,500 years ago), in the wake of anthropomorphic menhirs such as those of Carnac.
